Yeah it's really tough. I sell them for both models and it's really a hit and miss if it has buttons on the case. If the volume/power button part is open, don't even bother not worth it. But with the buttons on the case, you have to wear it to know for sure. Check eBay. Search Verizon lg g2 case and you get quite a few choices. Hope this helps you out. :)

I can stream audio to my car stereo easily enough through USB. The trouble I'm having is my stereo only sees music in my sdcard\Android\data\com.dropbox.android\files\scratch folder and not my sdcard\music folder. What is the problem? There is no .nomedia file on the sdcard root nor in the music folder. I've run the resync app a couple of times and I can see the music files with the phones music app. I used root browser to copy a song from music to sdcard\Android\data\com.dropbox.android\files\scratch and the stereo was able to see it. I've rebooted and removed/re-inserted my sdcard several times. What am I missing?

Hello,

I have accidentally entered the Chinese factory menu of the Xiaocai X9 by pressing Power + Vol Down instead of Power + Vol Up.

I have no clue how to exit the factory menu as everything is in Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese).

Is there a safe way to exit the factory menu?

I know that pulling the battery is not to be recommended but currently I cannot think of another way. I worry that by navigating the factory menu - which I don't understand - that I might create changes that I am not aware of and might come to regret later.

Thank you for your help.

EDIT: The lowest entry reboots the X9.

In the realm of important problems to solve, this rates pretty low on the list. Nevertheless -

I want to use my old Sensation as a streaming radio player. I don't intend to put a sim into it, but now I'm facing the annoying "no sim" notifications, both in the status bar and on the lock screen.

Airplane mode resolves this, but while I can turn Wifi on in airplane mode, I can turn on Bluetooth, which I need for the speakers I'm using. How do I tell the phone "I know there's no sim card. Shut up already." ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebornlol:
Thank you to those reading this thread. I greatly appreciate any answers to some questions that have been bothering me.

As displayed in the image below, cell standby has been a significant part of my battery life. Although the image currently displays 6%, at one point during the day it was around 9-10%. Cell standby has also been on for the same amount of the time that the phone has been on battery( at the time of this screen shot 7 hrs 4mins). What is cell standby? Why is it using a signicant portion of my battery today? I had another day this week where my battery lasted for around 1 day and a couple of hours, and cell standby was not being used as much on that day.

My next question is what are the differences between each of the location modes? I assume "High Accuracy" is what you should have on when using Google Navigation for the most precise coordinates and directions. What about "Battery Saving" and "Device Only"? Which of the two uses less battery? I would still like the functionality of my Google Now cards, etc.

Lastly, yesterday I'm sure I messed around with my Location settings, and as a result I started having a Google Now card with title "Get location based cards". The card states "to see location- based cards such as local weather and commute traffic, turn on Wi-Fi & Mobile network location". Does that mean I need to be in location mode "Battery Saving" or "High accuracy" in order to see the weather card and how long it takes to get home from my location, etc?

Thanks again to the community and everyone who is able to provide responses to my questions above.

I have a directv issued note 2 for work but can't get any good apps besides what they put on there so Does anyone know a way I can get or hack into the phone to make it stop blocking the play store and other apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
You can install APK's directly onto the phone, just make sure to allow unknown sources to install and push them manually into the system/apps folder.

Or you could make a TB to save the apps you have, odin the phone, and put the TB stuff back on there.

Other than that, I think your options are quite limited.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ntrujillo:
Yea that's what I was afraid of, I was hoping there might be a way around that method but like you said, I guess as long I backup the apps I need for work with TB then put them back, I should be fine. Thank you for the help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
My opinion is that you shouldn't do anything to your work phone, especially if it has items preloaded onto it. If you perform a factory reset, and the apps return, they have likely done a little more work to it than you realize. Also, since it is company issued, it is likely not your device, so if anything would happen to it, you'd be on the hook.

Hi,

Will either rooting or installing a custom kernel prevent a Nexus 5 from receiving OTA updates from Google? If not, and you have a custom kernel, does it get overwritten with a stock kernel during an OTA upgrade?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Being custom will often prevent ota updates and even if they didn't - accepting an ota would generally be a bad idea.

In terms of the hyper-hypothetical - a kernel cannot be overwrite if the ota doesn't include a kernel

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmagritte:
What about being root but no custom kernel? Is that an issue for OTA?

What do people generally do when they have a custom kernel. Do they still get an OTA notification then wait for the custom kernel to be updated or have to check manually? Do kernel developers generally have RSS feeds for update announcements? (The official kernel and ROM threads tend to have too much activity for me to want to subscribe to them...)

I'd be happy to stick with stock for a while, at least until Google polishes some of the bugs out, but there is one mod that requires a custom kernel that would be very useful for me.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Anything other than being completely stock will not allow you to successfully apply an OTA. You can have root permissions, but if you have any modified files the OTA will not complete.

I have an OTA thread in the Nexus 4 section that I will probably bring here when we see our first OTA. The info in that thread will apply to the N5 as well. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37925359

sorry guys, I don't speak much English

I did a factory reset by menu Android. The GNEXUS has restarted and remained on "deletion".

I've tried Nexus toolkit with Rom stock, Odin with stock rom, from command in fastboot mode, but everytime the process stops.

ODIN fails during the "UserData" process. Even with the toolkit hangs around during the operation "erase userdata".

With ODIN I was able to flash a version 4.2.2 no wipe (no delete userdata) but once restarted remains on Google screen.

At this time I can go to fastboot mode or Download mode (No Recovery mode!!!)

I cannot enable the debug mode...

I must bring in assistance or I can try other methods to flash?

I was at a verizon store recently and the agent there (who admittedly may not know what he was talking about) was absolutely convinced that in the near future you would be able to mail in your moto x and have them modify it to get whatever customization you wanted OTHER than changing the memory, and went so far as to claim they would be providing prepaid envelopes to ship the phones in. I didn't even ask about this, he was just explaining how the phone customization will work for people who bought early or in stores.

Just thought I'd mention that here. Hopefully he'll be right.

Hey guys,

as I now know, HTC has discontinued their service for the navigation app HTC Locations in July 2013. Here is the answer of my contact:

A great benefit of it was, that almost every country has a map packages, which can be downloaded to use it offline e.g. if you a on a trip with no mobile network.

Unfortunately, the map packages (for Android) cannot be downloaded any longer :crying:

Big thanks to [MENTION=2039709]jasonlee0315[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5581273]vincent312[/MENTION] to provide these map packages! :good:

Please note, that when using the map "Vatican" and "Italy" simultaneously (on you sdcard), it may causes the problem that no detailed country will be shown. In this case delete "Vatican", because it is also included in "Italy". Thanks to [MENTION=1190897]Liska[/MENTION]

How to get the maps work?

download and place the map files onto your sdcard in the directory: .data -> navigator -> Data -> Maps

from default in this folder is a file named ".placeholder". This can exist futher.

so just put the files in the mentioned directory,

disable any data connection

run HTC Locations and navigate to a place,

which is covered by these offline maps and see, if it works

How to get the speech work?

download and place the speech files onto your sdcard in the directory: .data -> navigator -> Data -> AudioRes

from default in this folder is a file named ".dummy". This can exist futher.

so just put the files in the mentioned directory,

run HTC Locations and start a navigation

Have fun and enjoy it :)

Thanks guys for going to all the trouble of making the maps & speech files available :)

I've got one slight little hiccup...

If I install a select few European maps (which I will need soon) Locations works like it should.

However, if I load all the Europe maps onto my HTC Desire S Locations refuses to show detailed maps and just gives me a basic outline of the coast etc.

Any ideas what's going on?

Hi @@RON,

Yes, I downloaded all the maps and speech files from the MEGA storage.

As I currently only need Europe I copied all the European maps (all 46) to the required location on my SD card.

I've cleared the Locations cache several times, but to no effect :(

I guess it's probably just one map which is causing the issue.

When I've got a moment I'll start removing the maps one by one until Locations works again... perhaps one maps is corrupt?

I appreciate your help :)

Many thanks.

I've found the problem map :)

Ironically it's the Vatican_125646.cmap map.

Remove this map from the map folder and bingo Locations now works fine :)

Interestingly all the maps I've looked at to rectify the problem contain © 2006-2011 TomTom... the Vatican one does not?

As the Vatican City is already included in the Italy map (with 3D buildings included) missing it out it is not a problem... being already included in the Italy map could also be the cause of the problem!

I hope this helps :)

Strange, when I delete all the files an folders, which are needed for the use of the HTC Locations app, they will be downloaded again, when I launch the app.

Always when I reset my phone, I also delete my sdcard. Then I install the (custom) rom and after the first boot, all necessary files and folders are available.

I've uploaded the the folder with the necessary files: *click here*

Just place it onto your sdcard in the root directory. You should be asked, if you want to replace the ".data" folder. Just do it, because my version contains only the navigator files ;)

Guys, I know not many people still uses HTC phones these days and even less people uses HTC Locations for offline navigation but here is a good news for those who still uses it.

If you have made any purchases from the HTC Locations app before, you can now download Route66 from Google Play Store and then once youare inside the app, login with the same email account as the one you had with your HTC Locations and all the old license you purchased will be back.

I've just did this and it works. Now my T-Mobile G2 has a more up-to-date offline navigation app.
